Moss from my wanderings

Shadow by the Sea
I started sketching this piece yesterday. I drew my inspiration mainly from old Gothic novel covers, but I am putting a fantasy spin on it. The elf is a one of the characters I created in the past once - a high elf lady of Ilaruan. I have to check if that name is not in use somewhere else, since it's a name I used back in the 90's for RPG sessions.

Finished some days ago but just decided to post now. Had other stuff that needed my attention first so I cold not focus on it full time. =)
